Working on a Mauser sporter, I want to free float the barrel and glass bed the action. Don't know how much all this will affect the accuracy, I just want to do it so I can say that I did!
I've heard two different approaches to free-floating, one is to relieve the barrel channel of material using sandpaper and mandrel. The other method I was told about was just to shim under the recoil lug.
Which job should be done first, the bedding or the floating? Or does it matter?
